Every year, NPR organizes its Student Podcast Challenge, where it invites middle and high school students from around the country to submit a short podcast or reported piece.

Teachers and students from Edgemont High School in Westchester, William Annin Middle School in Basking Ridge, NJ, and Mount Olive Middle School in Budd Lake, NJ, talk about their pieces and present a sample.

Today we're welcoming Sarah and Matt from Hyggeland Cabin in upstate New York, who built their own cabin from the ground up—a decision born from a COVID-era road trip and a serendipitous introduction to Den Outdoors cabin plans. What makes their story particularly compelling is they started dating in May 2020, bought land together on their one-year anniversary, and spent the next two years building a cabin while navigating a brand new relationship.Sarah grew up in a handy New Hampshire household where building additions and self-sufficiency were the norm, while Matt came from Hong Kong and Los Angeles with zero carpentry experience. Their journey together became as much about Matt discovering a new identity as a blue-collar builder as it was about creating a physical space. They touched every piece of wood in their cabin—Matt sanding and Sarah staining—while managing the project themselves and learning to navigate decision fatigue, budget overruns, and relationship dynamics.Their unique living situation adds another layer: they actually live in the cabin except when it's rented, which means they're constantly commuting two and a half hours from their Westchester apartment for turnovers. This hands-on approach has given them deep insights into what makes a space functional, from hidden storage with childproof locks to phone chargers at every bedside.We explore their philosophy of building with love, why they chose hourly contractor rates despite the uncertainty, how they've embedded themselves in their local community through volunteer firefighting, and their honest reflections on burnout, relationship strain, and why they're already planning to build another cabin despite saying they'd never do it again.Whether you're considering a DIY build, navigating a major project with a partner, or wondering how to balance living in your rental property, this conversation offers candid insights from a couple who learned everything the hard way.Instagram: @hyggelandcabin Booking Site: https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/1150094111589366186?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAaedjMdYkKtkd_J6LLAt7glhegEPG8HNDSbdKcsDtPzogFSuvyAS2WsHIqm5mg_aem_bAsfyE2-cGhia2He_BtZ8QInstagram: @cozyrockcabin Cozy Rock Cabin: https://staycozycabin.holidayfuture.com/listings/311027Cozy Camp Sebec: https://staycozycabin.holidayfuture.com/listings/311051 Cozy Rock Website: http://www.staycozycabin.com  YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_FgMwAgvORd1IwlH1nlC9g

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Today's shout-out goes to Michael Corbly from West Chester, OH. Thank you for your partnership with us through Project23. Your commitment is helping deliver God's Word with clarity and conviction. This one's for you. Our text today is Judges 5:1–3. Then sang Deborah and Barak the son of Abinoam on that day: “That the leaders took the lead in Israel, that the people offered themselves willingly, bless the LORD! Hear, O kings; give ear, O princes; to the LORD I will sing; I will make melody to the LORD, the God of Israel.” — Judges 5:1-3 When was the last time you saw a leader praise God before taking praise for a win? The battlefield dust hasn't even settled. The clanging swords are silent. Israel's enemies are scattered. And before anyone can draft a victory speech, Deborah and Barak break out in a song. This isn't casual background music. It's a public, God-centered anthem that shouts two things: Thank God for leaders who lead. Thank God for people who show up. It's a simple truth — leadership matters, but so does followership. Without both, God's purposes in Israel would've stalled. And here's the key: they didn't just acknowledge the human effort; they blessed the Lord. The victory belonged to Him from start to finish. We live in a culture quick to applaud human achievement and slow to give God the glory. Leaders often claim the credit. Followers sometimes forget who carried them through. But the rhythm of the Kingdom is different: leaders lead with humility, followers serve with willingness, and both make God the hero of the story. If you lead — lead in such a way that your first instinct after a win is to point up, not in. If you follow — do it with a willing spirit that makes God's work visible. When leaders lead and people willingly follow, God's name gets lifted higher, and the ripple of His glory moves farther. ASK THIS: When God has given you a victory, do you stop to praise Him before moving on? Are you more naturally a leader or a follower, and how can you honor God in that role? How can you cultivate willingness rather than reluctance in service to God? What's one leadership moment in your life where God got the glory instead of you? DO THIS: Today, thank one leader in your life for their godly influence — and let them know you're praying for their humility and courage. PRAY THIS: Father, thank You for leaders who lead and followers who serve with joy. Teach me to give You the glory in every win and to step willingly into the role You've given me. Amen. PLAY THIS: "All Glory."
